The Mikvah Emunah Society of Greater Washington (MES) was established with the mission of promoting these vital mitzvot through the maintenance and development of mikvaot in our community.MES currently operates the Wallerstein Mikvah, located in the Kemp Mill community in Silver Spring.

According to our tradition, the most important institution in any community is not its shul and not its school. The most important institution is its mikvah. The mitzvot of mikvah and taharat hamishpacha are crucial to the Jewish community and our entire way of life.
